“making men sweat most encounters with their female co-workers”
************
I once worked with a guy who got into hot water over a completely innocent remark to a female colleague with a hair trigger reactive personality. The incident eventually blew over but it created an unhealthy tension in the office for a long time.
I knew a guy that reported a woman in the workplace for chicanery on the quiet, and told his boss. “I don’t want to make trouble. just let you know what’s going on.”
So the boss called her in and crapped all over the poor guy, and this woman went right after him. She left the office for two weeks to file sexual harassment, but the dude was an ace at documentation and saw it coming. It was the late nineties and fair officials at corporate ruled against her. Even then she set about trying to find a lawyer. She charged him with hugging her at Christmas.
Never saw any stories on people falsely accused or similarly tormented. Wonder why that is.
